Re: Mystery bike found

.....but my impression is that Kawasaki was eager to promote themselves in Australia and gladly donated a dozen or so bikes.... In 1973, Kawasaki Australia donated 16 brand-new Z900's to Sandy Harbutt, for the making of the movie 'Stone'. No Kawasaki's were donated for the making of Mad Max as far ...

Re: Stone

.... I've never seen it but I think it is worth at least one viewing... :lol: some people who have only watched it once may argue that point ...... ;) It is an acquired taste - the acting was a bit corny in spots, but heh that was Oz in the early 70's.....here is an interesting quote from a film re...

Re: Goose fairing replicas.......(yet again)

Re: Goose fairing replicas.......(yet again)

Some considerable time ago now :oops: , I suggested that a run of Goose fairings would be made from using a decent, original La Parissienne fairing that I purchased from a local bike wrecker many years ago.
